The Institute is governed by its members who meet once a year at the Annual General Meeting. The day to day affairs of the Institute are managed by the Officers and the Executive Committee who are elected at the AGM.

The Annual Report provides the AGM with an overview of the work undertaken in the previous 12 months. It highlights the publications produced, the events organised and the projects undertaken as well as providing a set of accounts for the year.

The Institute is happy to make its network of experts available to assist individual organisations with particular research projects.

Commissions undertaken in the past are listed in the left hand column. Older commissions include:

• TGWU: To examine the labour legislation reforms being suggested in Jersey, analyse their likely impact and suggest how best to resist the legislation with reference to international standards.

If you are interested in commissioning a specific piece of work, please contact Carolyn Jones at Head Office to discuss a possible outline, schedule and cost.

What they said:

"This book is very timely as it marks the centenary of the Trade Disputes Act. Trade unionists need to continue to campaign for stronger union rights to protect and defend today’s workers."
